Neoantigens play important roles in cancer immunotherapy. Current methods used for neoantigen prediction focus on the binding between human leukocyte antigens (HLAs) and peptides, which is insufficient for high-confidence neoantigen prediction. In th...
T lymphocytes are a group of cells representing the main effectors of human adaptive immunity. Characterization of the most representative T-lymphocyte subclasses, CD4+ and CD8+, is challenging, but has a significant impact on clinical decisions. Up ...
Although structural studies of individual T cell receptors (TCRs) have revealed important roles for both the α and β chain in directing MHC and antigen recognition, repertoire-level immunogenomic analyses have historically examined the β chain alone....

Machine learning holds considerable promise for understanding complex biological processes such as vaccine responses. Capturing interindividual variability is essential to increase the statistical power necessary for building more accurate predictive...
CD8 T cells constitute an essential compartment of the adaptive immune system. During immune responses, naı̈ve T cells become functional, as they are primed with their cognate determinants by the antigen presenting cells. Current methods of identifyi...
Adjuvants have long been critical components of vaccines, but the exact mechanisms of their action and precisely how they alter or enhance vaccine-induced immune responses are often unclear. In this study, we used broad immunoprofiling of antibody, c...
BACKGROUND: Although a preponderance of pre-clinical data demonstrates the immunosuppressive potential of mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs), significant heterogeneity and lack of critical quality attributes (CQAs) based on immunosuppressive capacity l...
OBJECTIVES: The aim of this verification study was to compare the QuantiFERON-TB Gold Plus (QFT-Plus) to the QuantiFERON-TB Gold In Tube (QFT-GIT). The new QFT-Plus test contains an extra antigen tube which, according to the manufacturer additionally...
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Immunosuppression therapy following lung transplantation fails to prevent chronic rejection in many patients, which is associated with lack of suppression of cytotoxic mediators and pro-inflammatory cytokines in peripheral b...

Identification of early immune signatures associated with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) relapse following hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) is critical for patient outcomes. We analyzed PBMCs from 58 patients with AML undergoing HSCT, focusing...
